Seriously, I wasn't invested in him one way or the other (despite his friendship with Gwyneth Paltrow who I can't stand) but between his roll last night and Alton Brown's adoration for him, I'm coming around to be a Batali fangirl.

Does anyone know what happened to Naked Pizza, by the way? I used to get their shit all the time, and they've been closed since like August.

Because it is performative instead of being based on attraction, physical or emotional.

I definitely appreciate your addendum there. I'm wondering why, though, there are so many great Jez/GT voices who remain gray in the main page when they voice similar concerns?

If you have a Petsmart you go to, they probably have obedience classes for not too much money. I think mine was like $120? You NEED to do it. NEED. That dog will only get stronger and more bull-headed if you do not establish NOW that you are in charge of walks. I would suggest investing in a martingale collar and…

It's actually a whole series of videos that this one company does to raise awareness about adopting animals. This isn't the MOST overt in terms of message, but it is pretty cute.

Underwater Welder is one of the best things I've read in YEARS. I had to get a second copy because I'd sobbed/drooled over the first so much.

This reminds me of the Red Line conductor who would come into stations with "May the force be with you today" and stuff like that. It's nice to have a reason to smile on your commute.

The cast member may be white, as you said, but he is largely portrayed by a stuntperson at this point (lack of racial diversity in stunt performers is a related but larger issue). And I wouldn't consider the horsemen to be main characters, though that might just be me (personal opinion is that it's Irving, Abbie,…

Not in my gif folder it's not. ;)

We are agreed on all points.

I agree with all of your points but I will say that Tendo Choi was intended from the start to only be nominally Asian, if I remember what Beacham wrote/the novelization correctly. It doesn't change the fact that hiring a Latino actor to hire a 1/4 Chinese and 3/4 "other" character is problematic, but the character…

Agreed. Honestly, the whole Sleepy Hollow cast and crew is killing it lately. Orlando Jones is the most lovely troll in the universe. And I want every TV exec to sit up and take notice what happens when you let really talented people do what they do without too much intervention. The world takes notice and the…

The number of times I scream "Oh no John Cho!" at my TV during Sleepy Hollow and Star Trek indicate an even greater oversight than initially believed.

If you look a little further down the thread, that's exactly what I ended up saying.

Ok, I totally see your point now. Thanks for laying it out.

Sorry, maybe I'm being dense but I'm not sure I see that?
